Call of Love's Embrace
What calls to you in the loudest voice you have ever heard
Sending waves of tingles down your spine
Lifts your spirit to a realm of heaven here on earth
Rushes all around you in whispers so divine
What can swiftly bring you to your bended knees
Send your spirit soaring through the air
Lift your tender heart to places you have never seen
Strip your precious pride completely bare
What can make you want to change your life's direction
Look deep inside yourself with honesty
Embrace a life that carries a precious meaning
Open your eyes wide and truly see
Love calls you in the loudest voice you have ever heard
Rushes all around you in whispers so divine
Lifts your spirit to a realm like you have never seen
Sending waves of tingles down your spine
Love will swiftly bring you to your bended knees
Make you set aside your precious pride
Embracing you with a life full of honest meaning
Sweetly changing who you are inside

Oh, yes, love can, in all its forms. As I read the first three stanzas, I could only think of the swell of emotions I experienced standing at my daughter's side and holding her hand as she brought my grandchildren into the world.
I agree... Love does all that and more. Enjoyed reading your poem. Really like how you wrote this piece. Thanks for sharing with One Shot Poetry today! cheers

That's exactly what love is, beautiful choice of words Neva in this moving poem.
evocative discussion of the ebb and flow that knocks you over I have posted two poems this week. On not saying hello is new but Kingpin Baby was posted up on a quiet Sunday so I thought I’d give it another outing. Both are adaption of different formal poetry forms – pantoum and sonnet.
what does love bring...our reason to be..what a beautiful poem..thanks for sharing with One Shot..cheers Pete
Such a lovely poem of love's embrace, true love always brings people to their knees. Glad you shared with one-stop.

Very beautiful poetry. !! Yes the AMOUR transforms everything on its passage, thou décries admirable way. Devastatingly completely.Thank you NEVA x,x,
This shows how powerful love can be in many ways. Very nice.

The complexities of writing in these set forms is to carefully choose the lines that must be repeated, and you have done that to great effect. It impresses on you the varieties of love and how it sustains us through our life. Lovely poem, well written. Thank you.
Beautiful , evocative, and yes a humbling experience to love and be love -- you do write from the heart.
Lovely one shot,

Love is definitely transformative and you captured that beautifully here.
